Described switch matrix 435 according to from speed control signal V, the beginning danger signal S of aiding CPU 431, just change reverse signal R the control signal C1 of regulation to output circuit 436 outputs, output circuit 436 is accepted this control signal C1 and is adjusted the position phase of the three-phase power of supplying with to stator coil 424, control the beginning of brushless motor 42 spinning movements and stop, hand of rotation, rotative speed.Aiding CPU 431 is imported respectively from each part of the impulse singla P of described each Hall element H1, H2, H3 output, understands the slew mode of brushless motor 42.Keep up-down counter 437 in this aiding CPU 431, corresponding this statistical value by statistics with the position of rotation of brushless motor 42 from the impulse singla of Hall element H1, H2, H3.
According to above structure, connecting igniting switch S 2 and connecting under the state of lighting switch S1, the sensor 1 that sets from automobile is imported the speed of the steering angle of the wheel flutter SW of this automobile, automobile, the information such as overall height of automobile to ECU2 as shown in Figure 1, ECU2 performs calculations with host CPU 201 according to the sensor output of input, calculate flasher 3R, 3L projection lamp 30 about deflection angle signal DS, to each power element 4 input of two steering indicating light 3R, 3L.Power element 4 according to input about deflection angle signal DS perform calculations with aiding CPU 431, calculate with this about the cooresponding signal of deflection angle signal DS, to motor-drive circuit 434 outputs, drive brushless motor 42 and rotate.The rotary driving force of brushless motor 42 slows down by gear mechanism 44 and transmits to rotating output shaft 448, is connected therefore that projection lamp 30 on the rotating output shaft 448 rotates in the horizontal direction, the optical axis direction of steering indicating light 3R, 3L is partial to the left and right.Detect the angle of deviation of projection lamp 30 during these projection lamp 30 rotational action from the angle of rotation of brushless motor 42.Promptly as shown in Figure 8, carrying out aiding CPU 431 according to the impulse singla P (P1, P2, P3) of three Hall element H1, H2 on being located at brushless motor 42, H3 output at least one detects.Aiding CPU 431 compares detected angle of deviation detection signal with deflection angle signal DS from about the ECU2 input, the anglec of rotation of controlled reset brushless motor 42 makes both unanimities, can the optical axis direction of projection lamp 30 be steering indicating light 3R, 3L optical axis direction by about deflection angle signal DS be controlled at accurately on the deflection position of setting.
The light that deflection action by this projection lamp 30, the quilt that two steering indicating light 3R, 3L penetrate are partial to is from the craspedodrome steering handle of the automobile area illumination of direction deflection to the left and right, safe driving can be improved in can also throw light on the place ahead of steering direction of the craspedodrome direction of automobile of not only throwing light in the walking of automobile.
Carrying out initialization process when this ignition lock S2 connects, is the optical axis of steering indicating light 3R, 3L on the reference angle position in the angle of deviation position that above-below direction and left and right directions are set in regulation respectively.It is that horizontal direction and left and right directions are that inboard about 5.5 ° of the craspedodrome direction, the about 20.5 ° angular range in the outside are partial to action that steering indicating light 3R, 3L about among this embodiment is designed to respectively from above-below direction.Figure 10 is the diagram of circuit that the described initialization action flow process of explanation is used.Figure 11 (a) and (b) are about the expression projection lamp, about the mode chart of each rotational action and sequential chart separately.(S101) when ignition lock S2 is connected, at first aiding CPU 431 usefulness level control devices 6 drive horizontal mechanisms 5, begin the initializing set of the above-below direction of this horizontal mechanism 5.Promptly driving horizontal mechanism 5 makes carriage 31 to horizontal direction below inclination (S102).The optical axis of projection lamp 30 is partial to the below direction like this.At this moment when projection lamp 30 is above maximum with first specified time, be that the optical axis of 0.85 second projection lamp 30 is just towards horizontal direction, then towards the below of horizontal direction at this.Therefore projection lamp 30 is when being positioned at than little angle of deviation position, the angle of deviation position above the maximum, the optical axis of projection lamp 30 use than short time of described first specified time towards horizontal direction.Optical axis is towards the below of horizontal direction then.Certainly former state ground maintenance state down then when being exactly at first the below towards horizontal direction.
The optical axis of process specific time, projection lamp just becomes the state (S103) towards the horizontal direction below like this, aiding CPU 431 by motor-drive circuit 434 brushless motor 42 to a direction driven in rotation, projection lamp 30 from the interior side direction rotation (S104) of direction to the left and right of present optical axis position.In the explanation afterwards just be decided to be with the clockwise direction of figure, anticlockwise direction is decided to be negative.When the rotation of projection lamp 30 stops, promptly be located at projection 307 on the projection lamp 30 when running into the block 317, the projection lamp 30 that are located at a side on the carriage 31 and being partial to a side maximum angle of deflection position θ 1 (to-5.5 ° approximately in craspedodrome direction), detect statistical value X1 (S105) at this moment.Then, this is brushless motor 42 driven in rotation round about, and projection lamp 30 is rotated (S106) to the lateral direction than the left and right directions of craspedodrome direction.When its rotation stops, when promptly projection 307 block 317, the projection lamp 30 of running into an opposite side is partial to the position that is equivalent to an opposite side maximum angle of deflection position θ 2 (to+20.5 ° approximately in craspedodrome direction), detect statistical value X2 (S107) at this moment.Brushless motor 42 in the above flow process carries out with more high-revolving specified speed to a direction and spinning movement round about.
Then, ask the middle position neutral angle position θ c of the maximum angle of deflection position θ 2 of the maximum angle of deflection position θ 1 of an example and an opposite side.Promptly
θc=(θ2+θ1)÷2
In fact the calculating of this neutral angle position θ c is to use impulse singla statistical value X1 and the impulse singla statistical value X2 the during end perform calculations (S108) in the opposite direction when the interior side direction end.The statistical value Xc that is neutral angle position θ c becomes
Xc=(X2+X1)÷2
Being benchmark with this neutral angle position θ c then, is benchmark angular position o with the angle position of direction to the inside of the angle θ z of regulation only from this benchmark, the angle position of the direction of promptly keeping straight on.Promptly
θo=θc-θz
Actual calculation is to deduct the statistical value Xo (S109) that comes position, centering angle corresponding to the statistical value Xz of predetermined angular θ z from the described statistical value Xc of calculation.Be that reference angle position Xo becomes
Xo=Xc-Xz
Then from the outside extreme position of step S107 once more brushless motor 42 to a direction driven in rotation, projection lamp 30 to the inside direction begin to rotate (S110).At this moment the rotative speed of brushless motor 42 was decided to be than former high speed.Continue the statistical value Xo of rotation, stop the rotation (S111) of brushless motor 42 in the moment that reaches this statistical value Xo up to the reference angle position θ o that step S109 tries to achieve.So just can be set in reference angle position θ o to the optical axis of projection lamp 30, the direction of promptly keeping straight on can be carried out initializing set to the optical axis of projection lamp 30.
At this shown in Figure 12 (a), side extreme position maximum angle of deflection position θ 1 when direction is rotated to the inside from starting position S, waiting the stress of each one to produce distortion or vary with temperature generation by each material coefficient of thermal expansion rate by power element 4 and projection lamp 30 is out of shape, has produced amount of deflection angle θ x1 by these.The maximum angle of deflection position θ 2 of the opposite side extreme position when similarly the subtend lateral direction is rotated has also produced amount of deflection angle θ x2.Therefore become θ 1 ', θ 2 ' in fact respectively by these amount of deflection angles both maximum angle of deflection position θ 1, θ 2.
θ1′=θ1-θx1
θ2′=θ2+θx2
Neutral angle position θ c is then as follows when therefore using these θ 1, θ 2 to carry out the calculation of Xc at step S108
θc=(θ2′+θ1′)÷2
=[(θ2+θx2)+(θ1-θx1)÷2
=[(θ2+θ1)+(θx2-θx1)]÷2
=(θ2+θ1)÷2+(θx2-θx1)÷2
=θc+(θx2-θx1)÷2
Therefore the value of (θ x2-θ x1) ÷ 2 is an error.
1/2 of the difference of the amount of deflection angle θ x1 of the amount of deflection angle θ x2 of lateral direction and interior side direction produced like this as error, so very little of the setting error of mean squares of the setting of neutral angle position θ c and then reference angle position θ o.The amount of deflection angle θ x2 of the amount of deflection angle θ x1 of side direction and lateral direction is relevant with the projection lamp with same power element respectively in particularly should example, and rotative speed of brushless motor 42 is fixed in the middle of this, so separately amount of deflection angle θ x1, θ x2 are about equally.Therefore know that the error that is at this moment produced by amount of deflection angle θ x1, θ x2 roughly is 0, can obtain very high precision with the setting of reference angle position θ o.
Projection lamp 30 is when carrying out the reference angle set positions of left and right directions like this, projection lamp 30 is turned to the amount of deflection angle that the two ends way of contact of the end can produce when arriving each end to a direction and opposite sense respectively offset by adopting, change although power element 4 and projection lamp 30 are produced amount of deflection and produced amount of deflection by temperature traverse by stress, also can be set in the optical axis of projection lamp 30 accurately on the reference angle position.
During carrying out the 30 left and right directions optical axis initialization of above projection lamp, aiding CPU 431 remains on the optical axis of projection lamp 30 by horizontal mechanism 5 state of maximum below angle of deviation.Then at specific time, promptly second specified time that finishes than the reference angle set positions of described left and right directions only before any moment, this by horizontal mechanism 5 beginning the optical axis direction of projection lamp 30 below behind after the deflection 1.9 seconds (S112), aiding CPU 431 rotates projection lamp 30, makes optical axis towards horizontal direction (S113) by horizontal control mechanism 6 controlling level mechanisms 5 upward.Therefore optical axis towards horizontal direction the time be projection lamp 30 optical axis the dizzy puzzled subtend car of left and right directions towards the craspedodrome direction, so even also can dizzy puzzled subtend car when optical axis sets horizontal direction.
The projection lamp also can carry out the initialization of the single-ended way of contact when carrying out the reference angle set positions of left and right directions.The initialization of this single-ended way of contact shown in the concept map of Figure 12 (b), steering indicating light projection lamp 30 from the original position S at this turn to the end of a direction, at the position θ r of the maximum angle of deflection of this right.Then projection lamp 30 is rotated round about from this extreme position θ r, begin to add up impulse singla simultaneously, stop operating in the moment that counts on predefined impulse singla from Hall element.Therefore need only the correlation of trying to achieve in advance to the statistics of projection lamp 30 angle of deviation impulse singlas, just can only rotate the angle of deviation θ z of regulation to projection lamp 30 from extreme position θ r, can be set in the reference position of regulation to projection lamp 30, be on the craspedodrome direction at this according to the statistics of impulse singla.
But the initialization of this single-ended way of contact is when setting the position of projection lamp to a direction end to be begun the position, angle as setting, set starting position statistics impulse singla according to this, setting is as the reference angle position of craspedodrome direction, so that the extreme position during projection lamp to the direction end becomes θ r ', only the rotational angle θ x that produces amount of deflection according to each one of projection lamp and power element then drive motor unnecessary rotation is arranged, only this unnecessary rotation just might begin produce error on the position, angle setting.And when considering the spring rate of steering indicating light and materials such as employed resin of power element and metal and coefficient of thermal expansion etc., these values change with variation of temperature, so the amount of flexibility when being at the end also changes, might produce some errors setting on the beginning position, angle with variation of temperature.
As above when setting the optical axis position of left and right directions, although way of contact temperature traverse in two ends also can obtain high setting accuracy, action is simply set in the single-ended way of contact and the way of contact of described two ends specific energy mutually, so also can adopt this single-ended way of contact when not requiring the vehicle headlamp apparatus that the high precision optical axis position is set.
Described embodiment is that the reference angle set positions action beginning back of above-below direction begins the reference angle set positions action of left and right directions after through first specified time again, but aiding CPU 431 are inputs from the information of the projection lamp 30 above-below direction angle of deviation of horizontal mechanism 5, can understand in real time structure the time, also can be according to the information of this angle of deviation in the time of optical axis below horizontal direction of projection lamp 30, the reference angle set positions action of beginning left and right directions.Similarly, when aiding CPU 431 can be understood the left and right directions angle of deviation of projection lamp 30 optical axises in real time according to impulse singla, the finish time of also measurable calculation left and right directions reference angle set positions action, result in beginning upward the rotational action of the optical axis of projection lamp 30 towards horizontal direction according to this prediction.
At this, the left and right directions deflection scope of steering indicating light is the deflection angle initialization of direction must be less than deflection angle laterally to the inside to the craspedodrome direction of automobile among the described embodiment, so laterally rotate again after the projection lamp turns to the inside, but under the situation of the front lamp device that the deflection angle in inboard and the outside equates, promptly the reference position is set under the situation of head lamp at angle of deviation center in inboard and the outside, the order of rotation direction also can be arbitrarily.
The impulse singla of up-down counter 437 statistics of described aiding CPU 431 to any one Hall element H1, H2, impulse singla P1, the P2 of H3, P3 adds up can.Statistics again after the pulse signal cycle from Hall element also can carry out the pulse signal frequency division etc. very in short-term.
Among the described embodiment to be applicable to the projection lamp that constitutes steering indicating light to the left and right the direction deflection, the example of the head lamp that irradiation optical axis changes is represented, but the present invention is also applicable to the structure that only makes the action of light deflector deflection or by making the fill-in reflector that independently is provided with main light deflector be partial to the head lamp that moves, changes range of exposures in fact.
As mentioned above, the present invention possesses: in the irradiation optical axis that makes head lamp by deviator up and down below horizontal direction during state, utilize left and right sides deviator to carry out the deflection control setup of headlight optical axis set positions action, the optical axis position of head lamp during to the reference angle set positions, making the irradiation optical axis of head lamp by deviator up and down is when the state of the below of horizontal direction, utilize left and right sides deviator to carry out the action of headlight optical axis set positions, after the optical axis position setting action of this left and right sides deviator is finished, the optical axis position setting action of deviator is up and down finished, so utilizing before left and right sides deviator is set in the optical axis position of head lamp on the reference angle position, make the below of the optical axis position of head lamp by deviator up and down, utilizing left and right sides deviator to become after being set in the optical axis position of head lamp on the reference angle position on the reference position that this optical axis position is set at regulation towards horizontal direction.Optical axis position head lamp deflection subtend car when horizontal direction and even top can be prevented like this, the suitable control of setting dizzy puzzled subtend car in the action at optical axis position, guaranteeing AFS can be prevented.
